MY carrara

I work on a lot of scenes and finish extremely few. I don't have an online gallery so most people only know me from my forum posts. I figure this will be a good place to post a lot of unfinished scenes, some scenes are little more the me getting a bit carried away just trying clothes on the figure.

This is one of the renders I was working on that changed my opinion of negative lighting. I've turned the back ground light negative, dropped the strength of the side bulbs and added blue and red spot lights. I have a difficult time getting the dramatic back lighting and still keeping a good/soft light on the figure, with out using a negative light for the back lighting. Yes it's a trial and error work around ;)

I like this character, I work with her quite a bit in animation experiments. The ballet out fit fits and poses nicely.

Ok, here is David 3 using Mike 3's aged skin texture and David's old morph for a carnival character. The carnival was one of my overly ambitious projects, got to where there was so much in a scene I couldn't work it.

I worked out a few things like target disks for opening doors, but right off our hereon has to do a backward crab crawl away from the girl, and I just couldn't manage it.

Here is Mike 3. Don't worry he is just a senior member of the pedestrian authority. One of the characters for an Orwellian subway scene.
{Note: when I was doing the face I had a 70's character actor in mind. He played the clingy psychopath in the original longest yard.}

Night shift.
Head nurse and head of security; I think they make a great couple{but not till after the story}. These are for a comic of sorts, maybe an online graphic novel. The cops on patrol are up next. I need to do the news anchor and camera man, but I hit a plot issue. Zombies are way overly done, but I think if I take it back to the source it will work. As in a voodoo high priest that had been under arrest takes a drug to mimic death and the zombies have come to keep him from being autopsied before the drug wares off.

One of the PITAs of genesis is I have a big selection of mil3 and 4 poses that wont work on him.

I made the character to be the mayor of the town the carnival has come too. Like I said that carnival scene got huge lol

And here is the cops. The rookie and his too proud, 5 years shy of retirement, father in law. In the story they are working night shift delivering bodys to the hospital morgue. The rookie because he is a rookie, and the father in law because, well, he is an old world cop with old world habits ;)

Edit to add: The dark shadows on the arms are an HDRI issue with transparency. I can but haven't fixed it in the scene. If I remember right I need to use the alpha mask in the transparency channel.

How about a couple of rooms, unfinished scenes. Like I said I spend a lot of time just loading and tweaking stuff. I'm actually way behind and have a dozen or so DAZ ready scenes to load and work up; reset textures and lighting.
